Synopsis

DCP Anant Shrivastav (Amitabh Bachchan) has been assigned the mission to escort a supposed terrorist Iqbal Ansari (Atul Kulkarni) from Chandergarh to Mumbai. His terrorist organisation are determined to obtain him again. The plan for this is led by Yashwant Angre (Ajay Devgan), a ruthless killer and a former police officer. Anant's team consists of Inspector Shekhar Sachdev (Akshay Kumar), rookie cop Ashwin Gupte (Tusshar Kapoor) and two more inspectors. Soon Mahalakshmi (Aishwarya Rai) joins them as she is the only witness to have seen Yashwant.

The team is armed and ready to go but danger lurks everywhere as the terrorist organisation are determined to make sure the officers do not make it to Mumbai. The trip turns into survival when the team is attacked at various times. Finally the team make it to an abandoned cottage in the forest but there is a shoot out and the team is heavily outnumbered. Shekhar tries to force an exchange but against Anant's and Ashwin's judgement. Finally Ansari, after weeks of frustration, reveals that the terrorists are also out to kill him. He reveals a corrupt world involving the police and politicians. Shekhar is killed by Mahalakshmi and her associate Angre. This murder angers Anant and he hunts down each one of the corrupt officers and in the end, captures Angre after a fight and Angre is successfully captured. But during the capture, Mahalakshmi is shot when Anant tries shooting Angre and Angre pushes Mahalakshmi to block the bullet. The movie ends with Ashwin shooting Angre.
